Death of Executive Chairman
Lord Leonard Steinberg; Appointment of Kevin Donovan and Eugene Christiansen to
Serve as Interim Office of the Chairman
On
November 3, 2009 Electronic Game Card, Inc ("EGC") issued a press release
announcing the passing of Executive Chairman Lord Leonard Steinberg. That press
release also announced the appointment of Kevin Donovan and Eugene Christiansen
to serve as members of an Interim Office of the Chairman in Lord Steinberg’s
stead. A copy of that press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is
incorporated by reference into this Item.
Resignation of Executive
Officer; Appointment of Interim Replacement Officer
Effective
on October 21, 2009, Thomas E. Schiff resigned from his positions as Chief
Financial Officer and company Secretary of Electronic Game Card, Inc ("EGC")
because EGC did not have all effective insurance cover required by the terms of
his employment agreement. EGC agrees that cover was not in effect, but has since
secured that cover and additional business insurance. Mr. Schiff did not cite
any disagreement relating the EGC’s operations, policies or practices in his
resignation. Mr. Schiff, however, continues to provide his services to EGC
pursuant to a consulting agreement entered into as of October 22, 2009. Linden
J. Boyne, who recently retired as Chief Financial Officer and company Secretary
of EGC, was appointed interim Chief Financial Officer and company Secretary
effective October 30, 2009. Mr. Boyne is employed by Sterling FCS Limited, who
have been contracted to supply various financial function and company
secretarial function services to EGC since 2006 pursuant to a contract scheduled
to expire on March 2, 2010.
